VERY UNSAFE. THEY BOTH STOPPED WORK WHILE I WAS OPERATING THEM BY PUSHING THE BUTTON FOR THEM TO SLIDE DOWN. I HAVE NOT REPLACED THEM YET. ITS VERY COSTLY.

2004 GMC ENVOY XUV I HAVE A LITTLE OVER 40,000 MILES AND MY SPEEDOMETER HAS STOPPED WORKING. IT SAYS I'M GOING 120 MPH WHEN I MAY BE DOING 50 MPH. THE NEEDLE MOVES ERRATICALLY.
